I love this challege too! We have made a commitment and we are sticking to it. I exercised for six days... gave myself the day off yesterday to let my muscles rest. I'm on vacation next week (going home to western NY) so I will have lots of extra time to exercise. I am taking several workout DVD's, my Jillian Wii, and my hand weights. Also, I plan to take some a walk everyday while there. I'll be driving for nine hours tomorrow, so that will be hard sitting still for that long. Of course, I'll have my four year old grandson with me, so I'm sure we will need to stop several times while on the road.... I can at least get in some stretching when we stop. I will miss having internet access for the next nine days, but I will be thinking of you. I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving. Keep up the good work!

11/13: 10 situps, 10 lunges, 10 windmills (and elliptical daily)

11/20: 20 situps, 20 lunges, 20 windmills (and some form of cardio daily while on vacation)

This was a great idea, Coni. I don't think I would have tried dancing at all without the challange. But dancing again was much more difficult than I expected! Whew! And sore!!! Anyway the first day I only did 2 minutes and by the third day(yesterday) I was up to 7 minutes. I am doing this three days a week. I am doing good at my 3 times a week weight training as part of that have upped my treadmill time from 2 minutes five weeks ago to 12 minutes now. I am also trying to make sure I get to hike up the bluff three days a week and the last three times I helped drag wood home, but the weather can easily derail me on that. I am even restless sometimes, because I still have some unused energy and it has been years since that happened. Thanks Coni! have a great day everyone, Suzanne

11/13 no dancing

11/ 20 7 minutes of dancing
